Vitra - Mariposa 2 seater sofa

Vitra Mariposa 2-seater sofa.

Sofa design by designers duo Barber & Osgerby.

The Mariposa Sofa exudes an inviting aura of spacious comfort - and yet it maintains a subtly understated presence thanks to its balanced proportions.

The sofa owes its exceptional comfort on the one hand to the pleasantly soft upholstery, which completely covers the sofa. On the other hand, the innovative mechanism with which the side and back panels can be adjusted separately to different sitting and reclining positions.

The resistance is adjusted so that the elements stay in place under normal recline, but take on the desired angle when deliberately pressure is applied. The side and back elements can be adjusted easily, steplessly and silently. With these comfortable features, the Mariposa Sofa offers an inviting place to relax.
